Yales football program is one of the oldest in the world, with 890 wins, Yale ranks second in wins in college football history, trailing only the University of Michigan.

When the Ivy League athletic conference was formed in 1955, conference rules prohibited post-season play in football. While Yale had always abstained from post-season play, other schools had participated in bowls before, and the new policy further insulated Yale. The NCAA decided to split Division I into two subdivisions in 1978, then called I-A for larger schools, and I-AA for the smaller ones. In 1982, the NCAA created a rule that stated an average attendance must be at least 15,000 to qualify for I-A membership. This forced the hand, as only some of the member schools met the attendance qualification. Choosing to stay rather than stand their ground separately in the increasingly competitive I-A subdivision. Since the formation of the Ivy League in 1956, Yale has won 14 Ivy League championships,1956,1960,1967,1968,1969,1974,1976,1977,1979,1980,1981,1989,1999,2006.

–

Twenty-seven of the current Division I FBS football programs were members of this conference at some point, the SIAA was founded on December 21,1894, by Dr. William Dudley, a chemistry professor at Vanderbilt, at the Kimball House in Atlanta. Dudley was a member of the Vanderbilt Athletic Association, formed in 1886 with Dr. W. M. Baskerville as president, most students at Vanderbilt were members. The early sports played on the Vanderbilt campus were baseball, bicycling, Dudley was primarily responsible for the formation of the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Association. Sewanees opposition stopped it from occurring, the original members were Alabama, Auburn, Georgia, Johns Hopkins, North Carolina, Sewanee, Vanderbilt, and Virginia. Virginia and North Carolina soon dropped before the inaugural 1895 season, the conference was originally formed for the development and purification of college athletics throughout the South. In 1903, a single-game football playoff occurred, but it seems to have been coordinated more so by the two competing schools than the conference itself, several other efforts over the years by individual schools to hold a conference title game fell through. Most SIAA titles claimed by schools in sports were actually more mythical in nature than officially sanctioned by the league. In 1915, a disagreement arose within the conference regarding the eligibility of freshman athletes, generally, the larger universities opposed the eligibility of freshman players, while the smaller schools favored it. As a result, some of the universities formed the Southern Intercollegiate Conference. At the conferences annual meeting on December 10,1920, the SIAA rejected proposals to ban freshman athletes, in protest, some schools that had voted in favor of the propositions immediately announced they would seek to form a new conference. In 1922, the Southern Conference underwent an expansion and added six more members, all at the expense of the SIAA, Florida, Louisiana State, Mississippi, South Carolina, Tulane, and Vanderbilt. With the departure of most of the colleges, the SIAA became a de facto small college conference in 1923. In the 1920s and 1930s, the SIAA increased its membership with the addition of additional small universities. The conference eventually disbanded in 1942 with the onset of American involvement in World War II, original charter members are denoted in boldface. Invited charter members are denoted with an asterisk, in the era in which the SIAA operated, teams tended to join in December, therefore, the first year of conference play in a given sport was often the following calendar year. Conference affiliations reflect those for the 2016–17 school year

On October 13,1885, Georgia Governor Henry D. McDaniel signed the bill to create, in 1887, Atlanta pioneer Richard Peters donated to the state 4 acres of the site of a failed garden suburb called Peters Park.

Heisman led the team to the game in American football history. Dodd also led the Jackets on their longest winning streak against the University of Georgia, Tech began its football program with several students forming a loose-knit troop of footballers called the Blacksmiths. On November 5,1892, Tech played its first football game against Mercer University, the team lost to Mercer 12–6 in Macon, Georgia. Tech played two games during their first season and lost both of them for a season record of 0–3. Discouraged by these results, the Blacksmiths sought a coach to improve their record, leonard Wood, an Army officer and Atlantan, heard of Techs football struggles and volunteered to player-coach the team. Over the span of 1892–1903, Tech only won 8 games, tied in 5, in 1893, Tech played against the University of Georgia for the first time. Tech defeated Georgia 28–6 for the schools first-ever victory, the angry Georgia fans threw stones and other debris at the Tech players during and after the game. The poor treatment of the Blacksmiths by the Georgia faithful gave birth to the now known as Clean. In 1902, Jesse Thrash was the teams first All-Southern selection and he began the season as a sub and closed it as the undisputed star of the Tech team. Oliver Jones Huie was selected by Ga Techs athletic association to coach the team for the 1903 season when the team won 3.

–
The 1902 Nebraska Cornhuskers football team was the representative of the University of Nebraska in the 1902 college football season. The team was coached by Walter C, bummy Booth and played their home games at Antelope Field in Lincoln, Nebraska. Coach Booth entered his third season hoping to improve upon the 6-2 record of the previous year, the roster shrunk somewhat over previous years and was now down to just 19 players. The Lincoln high schoolers continued their exercise in futility in hoping to knock off the university squad in the preseason exhibition game. Doanes latest attempt to best the Cornhuskers fell completely apart as Nebraska scored seemingly at will against the overpowered Doane squad, Nebraska traveled again to Boulder, to meet Colorado for the second time. One Cornhusker score in half, combined with a stiff defensive effort to secure Nebraskas third straight shutout, secured the victory. Nebraska traveled to Minneapolis to face the feared powerhouse Minnesota team for the time, hoping to finally come away with a win. The hard fought game remained scoreless until the final minutes, when the Cornhuskers managed the only points of the day on a touchdown, meeting Missouri on new neutral ground, in St. One of Nebraskas touchdown came on a trick placekick that was run in for a touchdown. Nebraskas shutout streak was now eight games in a row, Nebraska hosted Knox for the first game between the teams, and the highlight of the event was the defensive efforts of both teams. Although Knox kept Nebraska to just 7 points in the first half before closing them down, Knox came close, however, before turning over the ball on downs just inches from the end zone. Nebraska met Northwestern for the first time, hosting another Illinois team in Lincoln for the week in a row. The penalty-ridden game was a battle, with Northwestern reporting rough treatment on the field by the Cornhuskers. Being an independent seemed to work against Nebraskas title consideration, as the contenders were members of the Big Nine Conference. Nebraska applied to the Big Nine following the season, but the application was denied, coach Booths record at Nebraska improved to 21-3-1, and the programs overall record improved to 62-28-5
